THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT

After
the Millennium, Satan is loosed from his prison. One final rebellion occurs.
The rebellious are destroyed. Satan is cast into the lake of fire. The heavens
and the earth pass away. The great white throne (which is the judgment of the
damned) is held. Then comes the end. A new heaven and earth comes forth. New
Jerusalem, the city of God, comes forth and then eternity.

1-HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS AWAY

(Commentary)

The
next event that appears to happen is the following.
The heaven and the earth shall pass away.
The heavens shall perish; the elements shall melt with fervent
heat. The heavens being on fire shall be dissolved. They shall pass away with
a great noise.
The Lord shall change them. They shall be changed.
The earth shall be burnt up; it shall be dissolved—the earth
shall perish.
The inhabitants are also dissolved.
The day and hour that "these things" will happen,
no man knows.
In each case, when both are mentioned, the heaven passing
away is mentioned first.

(Scripture)

Ps
102:25,26-OF OLD HAST THOU LAID THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH: AND THE HEAVENS
ARE THE WORK OF THY HANDS. THEY SHALL PERISH, BUT THOU SHALT ENDURE:
YEA, ALL OF THEM SHALL WAX OLD LIKE A GARMENT; AS A VESTURE SHALT THOU CHANGE
THEM, AND THEY SHALL BE CHANGED.
Heb 1:10-12-AND, THOU, LORD, IN THE BEGINNING HAST LAID THE
FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH; AND THE HEAVENS ARE THE WORKS OF THINE
HANDS: THEY SHALL PERISH; BUT THOU REMAINEST; AND THEY ALL SHALL WAX
OLD AS DOTH A GARMENT; AND AS A VESTURE SHALT THOU FOLD THEM UP, AND
THEY SHALL BE CHANGED. Isa 51:6-LIFT UP YOUR EYES TO THE HEAVENS, AND
LOOK UPON THE EARTH BENEATH: FOR THE HEAVENS SHALL VANISH AWAY LIKE
SMOKE, AND THE EARTH SHALL WAX OLD LIKE A GARMENT, AND THEY THAT
DWELL THEREIN SHALL DIE IN LIKE MANNER: BUT MY SALVATION SHALL BE FOR
EVER, AND MY RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL NOT BE ABOLISHED.
2 Pe 3:10-BUT THE DAY OF THE LORD WILL COME AS A THIEF IN
THE NIGHT; IN THE WHICH THE HEAVENS SHALL PASS AWAY WITH A GREAT NOISE, AND
THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH ALSO AND THE WORKS
THAT ARE THEREIN SHALL BE BURNED UP.
2 Pe 3:12-LOOKING FOR AND HASTING UNTO THE COMING OF THE
DAY OF GOD, WHEREIN THE HEAVENS BEING ON FIRE SHALL BE DISSOLVED, AND
THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT.
2 Pe 3:11-SEEING THEN THAT ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE DISSOLVED
(or destroyed), WHAT MANNER (or kind) OF PERSONS OUGHT YE TO BE IN ALL HOLY
CONVERSATION AND GODLINESS(?)

Ps
75:3-THE EARTHAND ALL THE INHABITANTS THEREOF ARE DISSOLVED:
I BEAR UP THE PILLARS OF IT. SELAH.

Mt
24:35-HEAVEN AND EARTH SHALL PASS AWAY, BUT MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY.
Mk 13:31-HEAVEN AND EARTH SHALL PASS AWAY: BUT MY
WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY.
Mk 13:32-BUT OF THAT DAY AND THAT HOUR KNOWETH NO MAN,
NO, NOT THE ANGELS WHICH ARE IN HEAVEN, NEITHER THE SON, BUT THE FATHER.
Lk 21:33-HEAVEN AND EARTH SHALL PASS AWAY: BUT MY
WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY.
Mt 5:18-FOR VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH

2-THE
GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT: ALSO CALLED THE JUDGMENT OF THE DAMNED (GWT)

(Commentary)

The
final rebellion against Jesus is over. The heaven and earth have passed away.
There is no place for them to hide.
There is no rejoicing at this judgment. There is no singing.
This is the judgment of the damned.Who will be at the great white throne judgment?
The skeptics, the mockers, the lukewarm Christians, the atheists, the agnostics,
the Hindus, the Moslems, the Jehovah's Witnesses, the spiritists, those that
practice Yoga, and the Buddhists, the Mormons, Unitarians, Zen Buddhists, the
astrologers, the fortune-tellers, the followers of Christian Science, and all
cults will be there. Those that believed in living for "self," who
trusted in gold and silver, idols, reincarnation, and in "just being a
good person" will find themselves at the great white throne judgment, and
then they are cast into the lake of fire.
All that did not die "in Christ," who were
Catholics, Protestants, Presbyterians, Methodists, Wesleyans, Lutherans, Episcopalians,
Baptists, Church of God, Foursquare, Assemblies of God, Church of Christ, Seventh-Day
Adventists, Pentecostals, Charismatics, and Evangelicals, even all denominations
shall be at this judgment. All that did not die "in Christ," from
all over the earth, shall be before the great white throne.
The religious and nonreligious shall be at this judgment;
those that went to good, Bible-teaching colleges and churches and those that
did not. Those that were Bible theologians, those that read the Bible, and those
that did not will be at this judgment. All who were not in Christ will
be there.
Millions of people that "thought they were saved,"
that thought they were "in Christ" shall be there. They did not do
God's Word. They bore no good fruit. They would not do the will of God. They
were not "in truth" born-again. Those that thought they were in Christ,
but did not love the brethren; those that professed Jesus, but would not repent;
those that were ashamed of Jesus and those that witnessed for Jesus, but would
not turn from iniquity shall all be at this judgment.
All that chose to live for this world, but not for the world
to come, shall be there.
Those that worshiped the beast and his image and took the
mark, but died before the judgment of the nations, will be at this judgment,
also.
Cain should be there. The rich man, in Lk 16, will be there.
The unrepentant Pharisees, scribes, Sadducees, and Herodians shall be there.
Those that put Jesus on the cross, should be there. Those that shouted, "Crucify
Him, crucify Him," should be there.
Those, today, that oppose God's work and God's people, if
they don’t repent, will be there.
Multitudes of preachers, priests, Sunday school teachers,
Gospel singers, elders, and moral people that were not "in Christ,"
will be there. Outwardly, they appeared very godly, but they were not "truly
saved."
It is appointed unto men once to die. When a person dies,
who is not "in" Christ, they go to a place called hell. There they
are tormented day and night in the flame until they are brought forth unto the
resurrection of damnation. They are delivered up to the great white throne judgment
where the books are opened, including the book of life. Here they are judged
according to those things that are written in the books, according to their
works. The Bible never mentions that there is any singing or praising at this
judgment, neither any rewards. It is the judgment of condemnation—the judgment
of the damned.
There is no supreme court where the unsaved may appeal. This
judgment is final. The results are everlasting. There is no love in the lake
of fire. Mercy does not extend into it.
Jesus Christ shall judge.
The heart is searched. Every work is brought into judgment.
Every secret thing is revealed. Nothing is hidden or covered. Every secret word
that was spoken in darkness shall be heard. Every word that was spoken, even
in closets, shall be proclaimed. Every idle (or careless) word that was spoken,
they shall render account for it.
Many will try to justify themselves, but their iniquity shall
condemn them. Even the rust on their gold and silver shall be a witness against
them.
The Word shall judge each person. The Law is the strength
of sin, and sin is the sting of death.
Moses will accuse. The men of Nineveh, the Queen of the South,
and other saints will be a witness against others in the judgment. Some appear
to be judged more severely than others, according to the opportunities that
they were given.
Finally, the dreaded moment of unspeakable terror. The nearly
countless people, from a myriad of generations, shall be cast eternally into
the lake of fire. Probably not a single person who ever lived really understood
that this place would be their final and eternal destiny.
Here is the terrifying end for the unsaved, the unrepentant,
for those that were not "in Christ." At this judgment, there will
be those people that were horribly wicked as well as those who were considered
"decent and good," but they rejected Christ. For time without end,
day and night, they will never again have any rest from the torment of the burning
flame. There will never be any hope of escape or pardon. There will never be
any hope of even a few moments of relief from the suffering—the judgment is
final, eternal, and irreversible. Cain will be there, also the rich man, Hitler,
and Judas. The inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah, Capernaum, and billions of
people from the time of the creation will all be there.
The second death is, death and hell being cast into the lake
of fire. And there they shall remain, being tormented forever and ever, with
no hope of release. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth for time without
end.

Man
has created all kinds of false doctrines to try to nullify God's eternal judgment
of damnation, such as a third resurrection and purgatory. Some even deny the
truth of an eternal lake of fire. Yet it is written, HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT THE
SON (the Word) SHALL NOT SEE LIFE-Jn 3:36. IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO
THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD-Heb 10:31. BUT I WILL FOREWARN YOU WHOM YE SHALL
FEAR: FEAR HIM, WHICH AFTER HE HATH KILLED HATH POWER TO CAST INTO HELL; YEA,
I SAY UNTO YOU, FEAR HIM-Lk 12:5. Once in hell, there is only the great white
throne judgment to look for, then the second death—being cast into the eternal
lake of fire.

(Scripture)

Condemnation
awaits those that believe not:
Jn 3:18-HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED: BUT HE
THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY, BECAUSE HE HATH NOT BELIEVED IN THE
NAME OF THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD.
Jn 3:36-HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE:
AND HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE; BUT THE WRATH OF GOD ABIDETH
ON HIM.
He that does not believe on Jesus and does not believe God’s
Word is already condemned. That condemnation will take many people to the great
white throne judgment and the lake of fire.

3-JUDGMENT
UPON THESE CITIES IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT

Jesus
warned those cities that would not receive Him (or those whom He sent) that,
when the day of judgment came, it would be better for Sodom and Gomorrah or
Tyre and Sidon than for them. Judgment has already come upon the cities mentioned;
however, the "great white throne judgment" may also be alluded to
here, when the people of these cities will face the final judgment.
It is written, Mt 10:14,15-AND WHOSOEVER SHALL NOT RECEIVE
(or welcome) YOU, NOR HEAR (or listen to) YOUR WORDS, WHEN YE DEPART OUT OF
THAT HOUSE OR CITY (or town), SHAKE OFF THE DUST OF YOUR FEET. VERILY I SAY
UNTO YOU, IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR THE LAND OF SODOM AND GOMORRHA IN
THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR THAT CITY.
Mt 11:20-24-THEN BEGAN HE (Jesus) TO UPBRAID (or denounce)
THE CITIES WHEREIN MOST OF HIS MIGHTY WORKS (or miracles) WERE DONE, BECAUSE
THEY REPENTED NOT (or had not turned from their sins unto God-NIV): WOE UNTO
THEE, CHORAZIN! WOE UNTO THEE, BETHSAIDA! FOR IF THE MIGHTY WORKS (or miracles),
WHICH WERE DONE IN YOU, HAD BEEN DONE IN TYRE AND SIDON, THEY WOULD HAVE REPENTED
LONG AGO IN SACKCLOTH AND ASHES (as evidence). BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, IT SHALL
BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR TYRE AND SIDON AT THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR
YOU. AND THOU, CAPERNAUM, WHICH ART EXALTED UNTO HEAVEN, SHALT BE BROUGHT DOWN
TO HELL: FOR IF THE MIGHTY WORKS (or miracles), WHICH HAVE BEEN DONE IN THEE,
HAD BEEN DONE IN SODOM, IT WOULD HAVE REMAINED UNTIL THIS DAY. BUT I SAY UNTO
YOU, THAT IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR THE LAND OF SODOM IN THE DAY OF
JUDGMENT, THAN FOR THEE.
Lk 10:12-15-BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE
IN THAT DAY FOR SODOM, THAN FOR THAT CITY. WOE UNTO THEE, CHORAZIN! WOE UNTO
THEE, BETHSAIDA! FOR IF THE MIGHTY WORKS HAD BEEN DONE IN TYRE AND SIDON, WHICH
HAVE BEEN DONE IN YOU, THEY HAD A GREAT WHILE AGO REPENTED, SITTING IN SACKCLOTH
AND ASHES. BUT IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR TYRE AND SIDON AT THE JUDGMENT,
THAN FOR YOU. AND THOU, CAPERNAUM, WHICH ART EXALTED TO HEAVEN, SHALT BE THRUST
DOWN TO HELL.

4-A
PERSON DIES, GOES TO HELL, AND IS TORMENTED WHILE WAITING FOR THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT

When
a person dies without Christ, they perish to a place called hell. They shall
remain there until they are delivered up to the great white throne judgment.
It is written, Lk 16:19,22,23-THERE WAS A CERTAIN RICH MAN,
WHICH WAS CLOTHED IN PURPLE AND FINE LINEN, AND FARED SUMPTUOUSLY EVERY DAY.
AND IT CAME TO PASS, THAT THE…RICH MAN…DIED, AND WAS BURIED; AND IN HELL
HE LIFT UP HIS EYES, BEING IN TORMENTS. Note, he perished to hell.
Lk 10:10,12-15-If THEY RECEIVE YOU NOT…I SAY…THAT IT
SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE IN THAT DAY FOR SODOM, THAN FOR THAT CITY. WOE UNTO
THEE, CHORAZIN! WOE UNTO THEE, BETHSAIDA! FOR IF THE MIGHTY WORKS HAD BEEN DONE
IN TYRE AND SIDON, WHICH HAVE BEEN DONE IN YOU, THEY HAD A GREAT WHILE AGO REPENTED,
SITTING IN SACKCLOTH AND ASHES. BUT IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR TYRE AND
SIDON AT THE JUDGMENT, THAN FOR YOU. AND THOU, CAPERNAUM, WHICH ART EXALTED
TO HEAVEN, SHALT BE THRUST DOWN TO HELL. Note, they were thrust down to hell
where they remain until they are delivered up to the great white throne judgment.
1 Pe 4:17,18-FOR THE TIME IS COME THAT JUDGMENT MUST BEGIN
AT THE HOUSE OF GOD: AND IF IT FIRST BEGIN AT US, WHAT SHALL THE END BE OF THEM
THAT OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL OF GOD? AND IF THE RIGHTEOUS SCARCELY BE SAVED, WHERE
SHALL THE UNGODLY AND THE SINNER APPEAR? The answer is, those that die today
without Christ shall appear at the great white throne judgment.
Heb 9:27-(For) IT IS APPOINTED UNTO MEN ONCE TO DIE, BUT
AFTER THIS THE JUDGMENT.
Once a person dies without Christ, they shall not be delivered
up until the thousand years are finished.
Rev 20:5-BUT THE REST OF THE DEAD LIVED NOT AGAIN UNTIL THE
THOUSAND YEARS WERE FINISHED.
Job 14:12-SO MAN LIETH DOWN, AND RISETH NOT: TILL THE
HEAVENS BE NO MORE, THEY SHALL NOT AWAKE, NOR BE RAISED OUT OF THEIR
SLEEP.
2 Pe 3:7,10-BUT THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, WHICH ARE NOW,
BY THE SAME WORD ARE KEPT IN STORE, RESERVED UNTO FIRE AGAINST THE DAY OF JUDGMENT
AND PERDITION OF UNGODLY MEN. BUT THE DAY OF THE LORD WILL COME AS A THIEF IN
THE NIGHT; IN THE WHICH THE HEAVENS SHALL PASS AWAY WITH A GREAT NOISE, AND
THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH ALSO AND THE WORKS THAT
ARE THEREIN SHALL BE BURNED UP.
Rev 21:1-(For) THE FIRSTHEAVENAND
THE FIRST EARTH WERE PASSED
AWAY.

5-THE JUDGMENT

Some
say that a loving God would never condemn anyone to the eternal lake of fire.
Those that say this neither believe or understand the Scriptures. Neither do
they understand the overwhelming love of God, revealed in the Scriptures and
in His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. God offers the greatest gift possible
to mankind—the gift of eternal life. Those that refuse to receive the forgiveness
of their sins, through faith in Jesus Christ, shall pay for their own sins;
FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH-Ro 6:23.
It is written, FOR THE LORD LOVETH JUDGMENT-Ps 37:28; AND
MERCY REJOICETH AGAINST JUDGMENT-Ja 2:13.
Know this, IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF
THE LIVING GOD-Heb 10:31. Those that have died without Christ, (they) SHALL
COME FORTH…THAT HAVE DONE EVIL, UNTO THE RESURRECTION OF DAMNATION-Jn 5:29.
Rev 20:11-AND I SAW A GREAT WHITE THRONE, AND HIM
THAT SAT ON IT, FROM WHOSE FACE (or presence) THE EARTH AND THE HEAVEN (or sky)
FLED AWAY; AND THERE WAS FOUND NO PLACE FOR THEM. Rev 20:12-AND I SAW THE DEAD, SMALL AND GREAT, STAND
BEFORE GOD (or in front of, or before the throne); AND THE BOOKS WERE OPENED:
AND ANOTHER BOOK WAS OPENED, WHICH IS THE BOOK OF LIFE: AND THE DEAD WERE JUDGED
OUT OF THOSE THINGS WHICH WERE WRITTEN (or recorded) IN THE BOOKS, ACCORDING
TO THEIR WORKS (or according to what they had done-NIV).
Rev 20:13-AND THE SEA GAVE UP THE DEAD WHICH WERE IN IT;
AND DEATH AND HELL (or Hades) DELIVERED UP THE DEAD WHICH WERE IN THEM: AND
THEY (each person) WERE JUDGED EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO THEIR WORKS (or what he
had done).
There appears to be a book of works and also the book of
life. Some say that there is a third book, the Lamb’s book of life-ref Rev 21:27.

6-JESUS SHALL JUDGE

AND
HE COMMANDED US…TO TESTIFY THAT IT IS HE (Jesus) WHICH WAS ORDAINED
OF GOD TO BE THE JUDGE OF QUICK AND DEAD-Acts 10:42. BECAUSE HE HATH
APPOINTED A DAY, IN THE WHICH HE WILL JUDGE THE WORLD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS BY THAT
MAN (Jesus) WHOM HE HATH ORDAINED; WHEREOF HE HATH GIVEN ASSURANCE UNTO ALL
MEN, IN THAT HE HATH RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD-Acts 17:31. IN THE DAY WHEN
GOD SHALL JUDGE THE SECRETS OF MEN BY JESUS CHRIST-Ro 2:16.

7-HOW
SHALL PEOPLE BE JUDGED?

FOR
HE SHALL HAVE JUDGMENT WITHOUT MERCY, THAT HATH SHEWED NO MERCY-Ja 2:13.

8-WHAT
SHALL JESUS DO? WHAT SHALL BE DONE AT THE JUDGMENT?

BUT
HE THAT DENIETH ME BEFORE MEN SHALL BE DENIED BEFORE THE ANGELS OF GOD-Lk 12:9.
(For) THEY PROFESS THAT THEY KNOW GOD; BUT IN WORKS THEY
DENY HIM, BEING ABOMINABLE, AND DISOBEDIENT, AND UNTO EVERY GOOD WORK REPROBATE-Titus
1:16.
(For) IT WERE BETTER FOR HIM THAT A MILLSTONE WERE HANGED
ABOUT HIS NECK, AND HE CAST
INTO THE SEA, THAN THAT HE SHOULD OFFEND ONE OF THESE LITTLE
ONES-Lk 17:2.
I THE LORD SEARCH THE HEART, I TRY THE REINS, EVEN TO GIVE
EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS WAYS, AND ACCORDING TO THE FRUIT OF HIS DOINGS-Jere
17:10.
(For) BEFORE GOD, NOTHING CREATED IS HIDDEN, BUT ALL THINGS
ARE NAKED AND OPEN TO THE EYES OF HIM-Heb 4:13 JNT.117 FOR GOD SHALL BRING EVERY WORK INTO JUDGMENT, WITH
EVERY SECRET THING, WHETHER IT BE GOOD, OR WHETHER IT BE EVIL-Ecc 12:14.
FOR NOTHING IS SECRET, THAT SHALL NOT BE MADE MANIFEST; NEITHER
ANY THING HID, THAT SHALL NOT BE KNOWN AND COME ABROAD-Lk 8:17.
FOR THERE IS NOTHING COVERED, THAT SHALL NOT BE REVEALED;
AND HID, THAT SHALL NOT BE KNOWN-Mt 10:26.
FOR THERE IS NOTHING COVERED, THAT SHALL NOT BE REVEALED;
NEITHER HID, THAT SHALL NOT BE KNOWN-
Lk 12:2.
THEREFORE WHATSOEVER YE HAVE SPOKEN IN DARKNESS SHALL BE
HEARD IN THE LIGHT; AND THAT WHICH YE HAVE SPOKEN IN THE EAR IN CLOSETS SHALL
BE PROCLAIMED UPON THE HOUSETOPS-Lk 12:3.
BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT EVERY IDLE WORD THAT MEN SHALL SPEAK,
THEY SHALL GIVE ACCOUNT THEREOF IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT…AND BY THY WORDS THOU
SHALT BE CONDEMNED-Mt 12:36,37.
TAKE HEED THEREFORE HOW YE HEAR: FOR WHOSOEVER …HATH NOT,
FROM HIM SHALL BE TAKEN EVEN THAT WHICH HE SEEMETH TO HAVE-Lk 8:18.

9-WHAT
SHALL PEOPLE SAY OR DO AT THE JUDGMENT?

MANY
WILL SAY TO ME IN THAT DAY, LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT PROPHESIED IN THY NAME?
AND IN THY NAME HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS? AND IN THY NAME DONE MANY WONDERFUL WORKS?
AND THEN WILL I PROFESS UNTO THEM, I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT
WORK INIQUITY-Mt 7:22,23.
WHEREIN THEY…SHALL GIVE ACCOUNT TO HIM THAT IS READY TO
JUDGE THE QUICK AND THE DEAD-1 Pe 4:4,5.

10-WHAT
ELSE SHALL JUDGE?

YOUR
GOLD AND SILVER IS CANKERED; AND THE RUST OF THEM SHALL BE A WITNESS AGAINST
YOU, AND SHALL EAT YOUR FLESH AS IT WERE FIRE. YE HAVE HEAPED TREASURE TOGETHER
FOR THE LAST DAYS-Ja 5:3.
HE THAT REJECTETH ME, AND RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS, HATH ONE
THAT JUDGETH HIM: THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM IN THE
LAST DAY-Jn 12:48.
THE STING OF DEATH IS SIN; AND THE STRENGTH OF SIN IS THE
LAW-1 Cor 15:56.

11-THE LAW

FOR
AS MANY AS HAVE SINNED WITHOUT LAW SHALL ALSO PERISH WITHOUT LAW: AND AS MANY
AS HAVE SINNED IN THE LAW SHALL BE JUDGED BY THE LAW; (FOR NOT THE HEARERS OF
THE LAW ARE JUST BEFORE GOD, BUT THE DOERS OF THE LAW SHALL BE JUSTIFIED. FOR
WHEN THE GENTILES, WHICH HAVE NOT THE LAW, DO BY NATURE THE THINGS CONTAINED
IN THE LAW, THESE, HAVING NOT THE LAW, ARE A LAW UNTO THEMSELVES: WHICH SHOW
THE WORK OF THE LAW WRITTEN IN THEIR HEARTS, THEIR CONSCIENCE ALSO BEARING WITNESS,
AND THEIR THOUGHTS THE MEAN WHILE ACCUSING OR ELSE EXCUSING ONE ANOTHER;) IN
THE DAY WHEN GOD SHALL JUDGE THE SECRETS OF MEN BY JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO
MY GOSPEL-Ro 2:12-16.
NOW WE KNOW THAT WHAT THINGS SOEVER THE LAW SAITH, IT SAITH
TO THEM WHO ARE UNDER THE LAW: THAT EVERY MOUTH MAY BE STOPPED, AND ALL THE
WORLD MAY BECOME GUILTY BEFORE GOD. THEREFORE BY THE DEEDS OF THE LAW THERE
SHALL NO FLESH BE JUSTIFIED IN HIS SIGHT: FOR BY THE LAW IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF
SIN. BUT NOW THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WITHOUT THE LAW IS MANIFESTED, BEING WITNESSED
BY THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS; EVEN THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHICH IS BY FAITH
OF JESUS CHRIST UNTO ALL AND UPON ALL THEM THAT BELIEVE: FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE:
FOR ALL HAVE SINNED, AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD-Ro 3:19-23.
FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL KEEP THE WHOLE LAW, AND YET OFFEND IN
ONE POINT, HE IS GUILTY OF ALL. FOR HE THAT SAID, DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, SAID
ALSO, DO NOT KILL. NOW IF THOU COMMIT NO ADULTERY, YET IF THOU KILL, THOU ART
BECOME A TRANSGRESSOR OF THE LAW-Ja 2:10,11.

12-WHO ELSE SHALL JUDGE?

At
this judgment, some will be used to accuse, condemn, or judge others.
DO NOT THINK THAT I WILL ACCUSE YOU TO THE FATHER: THERE
IS ONE THAT ACCUSETH YOU, EVEN MOSES, IN WHOM YE TRUST-Jn 5:45.
THE MEN OF NINEVEH SHALL RISE (up at the judgment) IN JUDGMENT
WITH THIS GENERATION, AND SHALL CONDEMN IT: BECAUSE THEY REPENTED AT THE PREACHING
OF JONAH; AND, BEHOLD, A GREATER THAN JONAH IS HERE-Mt 12:41; ref Lk 11:32.
THE QUEEN OF THE SOUTH SHALL RISE UP IN THE JUDGMENT WITH
(the people of) THIS GENERATION, AND SHALL CONDEMN IT (or them): FOR SHE CAME
FROM THE UTTERMOST PARTS (or ends) OF THE EARTH TO HEAR THE WISDOM OF SOLOMON;
AND, BEHOLD, A GREATER THAN SOLOMON IS HERE-Mt 12:42; ref Lk 11:31.
AND IF I BY BEELZEBUB CAST OUT DEVILS, BY WHOM DO YOUR SONS
CAST THEM OUT? THEREFORE SHALL THEY BE YOUR JUDGES-Lk 11:19.

13-SOME
SHALL BE JUDGED MORE SEVERELY THAN OTHERS

Some
appear to be judged more critically than others. The Scriptures indicate that
a person will be judged more or less severely according to the opportunities
which they had to hear God’s Word and come to Christ, also according to the
magnitude of the preaching and miracles they heard or saw.
It is written, VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE
FOR THE LAND OF SODOM AND GOMORRHA IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR THAT CITY.
WOE UNTO THEE, CHORAZIN! WOE UNTO THEE, BETHSAIDA! FOR IF THE MIGHTY WORKS,
WHICH WERE DONE IN YOU, HAD BEEN DONE IN TYRE AND SIDON, THEY WOULD HAVE REPENTED
LONG AGO IN SACKCLOTH AND ASHES. BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE
FOR TYRE AND SIDON AT THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR YOU. AND THOU, CAPERNAUM,
WHICH ART EXALTED UNTO HEAVEN, SHALT BE BROUGHT DOWN TO HELL: FOR IF THE MIGHTY
WORKS, WHICH HAVE BEEN DONE IN THEE, HAD BEEN DONE IN SODOM, IT WOULD HAVE REMAINED
UNTIL THIS DAY. BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT IT SHALL BE MORE TOLERABLE FOR THE
LAND OF SODOM IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT, THAN FOR THEE-Mt 10:15; 11:21-24.
AND THAT SERVANT, WHICH KNEW HIS LORD’S WILL, AND PREPARED
NOT HIMSELF, NEITHER DID ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, SHALL BE BEATEN WITH MANY STRIPES-Lk
12:47. BUT HE THAT KNEW NOT, AND DID COMMIT THINGS WORTHY OF STRIPES, SHALL
BE BEATEN WITH FEW STRIPES-Lk 12:48. And those WHICH DEVOUR WIDOWS’ HOUSES,
AND FOR A SHOW MAKE LONG PRAYERS: THE SAME SHALL RECEIVE GREATER DAMNATION-Lk
20:47; ref Mk 12:40.
For AFTER THY HARDNESS AND IMPENITENT HEART TREASUREST UP
UNTO THYSELF WRATH AGAINST THE DAY OF WRATH AND REVELATION OF THE RIGHTEOUS
JUDGMENT OF GOD; WHO WILL RENDER TO EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS-Ro 2:5,6.

14-WHAT CAN WE DO?

THEREFORE
JUDGE NOTHING BEFORE THE TIME, UNTIL THE LORD COME, WHO BOTH WILL BRING TO LIGHT
THE HIDDEN THINGS OF DARKNESS-1 Cor 4:5.
THEREFORE IF THINE ENEMY HUNGER, FEED HIM; IF HE THIRST,
GIVE HIM DRINK: FOR IN SO DOING THOU SHALT HEAP COALS OF FIRE ON HIS HEAD-Ro
12:20.
WITH THE MERCIFUL (or faithful, or kind) THOU WILT SHEW THYSELF
MERCIFUL (or faithful, or kind); WITH AN UPRIGHT MAN THOU WILT SHEW THYSELF
UPRIGHT; WITH THE PURE THOU WILT SHEW THYSELF PURE; AND WITH THE FROWARD (or
crooked) THOU WILT SHEW THYSELF FROWARD (shrewd)-Ps 18:25-26.
AND ABOVE ALL THINGS HAVE FERVENT CHARITY (or love) AMONG
YOURSELVES: FOR CHARITY (or love) SHALL COVER THE MULTITUDE OF SINS-1 Pe 4:8.

15-THE
FINAL OUTCOME OF THE UNSAVED

The
thought of eternity in everlasting torment is utterly terrifying, yet some shall
be punished even worse than others.
Know that THE SEED OF THE WICKED SHALL BE CUT OFF-Ps 37:28.
FOR, LO, THINE ENEMIES, O LORD, FOR, LO, THINE ENEMIES SHALL PERISH- Ps 92:9.
AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE TRANSGRESSORS AND OF THE SINNERS SHALL BE TOGETHER,
AND THEY THAT FORSAKE THE LORD SHALL BE CONSUMED-Isa 1:28.
AND DEATH AND HELL WERE CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE.
THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH.AND WHOSOEVER WAS NOT FOUND WRITTEN
IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE-Rev 20:14,15. For HE
WILL BURN UP THE CHAFF WITH UNQUENCHABLE FIRE-Mt 3:12; INTO THE FIRE THAT NEVER
SHALL BE QUENCHED-Mk 9:45; WHERE THEIR WORM DIETH NOT, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED-Mk
9:44,46,48.
And THERE SHALL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH-Mt 24:51;
WHEN YE SHALL SEE ABRAHAM, AND ISAAC, AND JACOB, AND ALL THE PROPHETS, IN THE
KINGDOM OF GOD, AND YOU YOURSELVES THRUST OUT-Lk 13:28.
For THE AXE IS LAID UNTO THE ROOT OF THE TREES: THEREFORE
EVERY TREE WHICH BRINGETH NOT FORTH GOOD FRUIT IS HEWN DOWN, AND CAST INTO THE
FIRE-Mt 3:10. For IF A MAN ABIDE NOT IN ME, HE IS CAST FORTH AS A BRANCH, AND
IS WITHERED; AND MEN GATHER THEM, AND CAST THEM INTO THE FIRE, AND THEY ARE
BURNED-Jn 15:6.
And THE CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM SHALL BE CAST OUT INTO OUTER
DARKNESS: THERE SHALL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH-Mt 8:12.
And THE FEARFUL, AND UNBELIEVING, AND THE ABOMINABLE, AND
MURDERERS, AND WHOREMONGERS, AND SORCERERS, AND IDOLATERS, AND ALL LIARS, SHALL
HAVE THEIR PART IN THE LAKE WHICH BURNETH WITH FIRE AND BRIMSTONE: WHICH IS
THE SECOND DEATH-Rev 21:8.
The ungodly and those that SPEAK EVIL OF THOSE THINGS WHICH
THEY KNOW NOT…CLOUDS THEY ARE WITHOUT WATER, CARRIED ABOUT OF WINDS; TREES
WHOSE FRUIT WITHERETH, WITHOUT FRUIT, TWICE DEAD, PLUCKED UP BY THE ROOTS; RAGING
WAVES OF THE SEA, FOAMING OUT THEIR OWN SHAME; WANDERING STARS, TO WHOM IS RESERVED
THE BLACKNESS OF DARKNESS FOR EVER-Jude 10,12,13.

16-THE
SAINTS PRESERVED FOREVER

THE
LORD…FORSAKETH NOT HIS SAINTS; THEY ARE PRESERVED FOR EVER-Ps 37:28.

17-MORE
ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE DESOLATE

FOR
MORE ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE DESOLATE THAN THE CHILDREN OF THE MARRIED WIFE,
SAITH THE LORD-Isa 54:1. The devil has many more followers than Jesus does.

18-THE
JUDGMENT OF THE FALLEN ANGELS AND HOST OF THE HIGH ONES (JA)

(Commentary)

The
angels that sinned and left their home and position of authority have been cast
into hell. They are awaiting the judgment of the great day. When this judgment
shall be held is unclear. The term "the great day" is used several
times denoting the time of Jesus’ return.
Isaiah seems to indicate, at the time of Jesus’ return, certain
"high ones" that are not currently in hell at this time shall then
be gathered and shut up in the pit. After many days, their judgment may come
during the time when hell delivers up the dead. Should this be true of "these"
high ones, then their judgment would appear to come around the time of the "great
white throne judgment."
The Scriptures show that the saints shall judge angels.

(Scripture)

GOD
SPARED NOT THE ANGELS THAT SINNED, BUT CAST THEM DOWN TO HELL, AND DELIVERED
THEM INTO CHAINS OF DARKNESS, TO BE RESERVED UNTO JUDGMENT-2 Pe 2:4.
AND THE ANGELS WHICH KEPT NOT THEIR FIRST ESTATE (or positions
of authority), BUT LEFT THEIR OWN HABITATION (or own home), HE HATH RESERVED
IN EVERLASTING CHAINS UNDER DARKNESS UNTO THE JUDGMENT OF THE GREAT DAY-Jude
6.
AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS IN THAT DAY, THAT THE LORD SHALL
PUNISH THE HOST OF THE HIGH ONES THAT ARE ON HIGH (or the powers in the heavens
above-NIV)…AND THEY SHALL BE GATHERED TOGETHER, AS PRISONERS ARE GATHERED
IN THE PIT, AND SHALL BE SHUT UP IN THE PRISON, AND AFTER MANY DAYS SHALL THEY
BE VISITED-Isa 24:21,22.
KNOW YE NOT THAT WE SHALL JUDGE ANGELS? HOW MUCH MORE THINGS
THAT PERTAIN TO THIS LIFE?-1 Cor 6:3.

19-THEN COMETH THE END

1
Cor 15:24-28-THEN COMETH THE END, WHEN HE SHALL HAVE DELIVERED UP THE
KINGDOM TO GOD, EVEN THE FATHER; WHEN HE SHALL HAVE PUT DOWN ALL
RULE AND ALL AUTHORITY AND POWER.
FOR HE MUST REIGN, TILL HE HATH PUT ALL ENEMIES UNDER
HIS FEET.
THE LAST ENEMY THAT SHALL BE DESTROYED IS DEATH. FOR HE HATH PUT ALL THINGS UNDER HIS FEET.
BUT WHEN HE SAITH ALL THINGS ARE PUT UNDER HIM, IT IS MANIFEST THAT HE
IS EXCEPTED, WHICH DID PUT ALL THINGS UNDER HIM.
AND WHEN ALL THINGS SHALL BE SUBDUED UNTO HIM, THEN
SHALL THE SON ALSO HIMSELF BE SUBJECT UNTO HIM THAT PUT ALL THINGS UNDER HIM,
THAT GOD (which is the Father) MAY BE ALL IN ALL.
